After hours I found the v2.0 Maximus rom that was released. It initially installed fine but my wifi, 4g, and cellular networks all weren’t connecting. Said screw it, wiped everything again, adb pushed the rom back to my phone.. and it just keeps getting stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen/ Over and over and over again. I can’t get past it. Anyone, any advice?

I followed the steps and unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device. That went fine. Then I downloaded the Maximus rom file and transferred it to my phone’s internal HDD. Entered TWRP, factory restore, wipe system data, cache, and delvik. Clicked install and chose the .zip that’s the maximus rom. I select full wipe and within the first second it starts installing, it gives me the

error. I let it wait 30 minutes with no change to the status. I’ve been without my phone for almost a whole day now and I CANNOT get this thing to work. I can’t even find a stock rom to restore it to its factory condition. Can anyone out there help? I’m close to slamming this thing against the wall.
